Covering the conventions online and over the air...

During the next two weeks, WPT will be the place to find the most comprehensive coverage of the two Presidential National Conventions. The NewsHour With Jim Lehrer will be offering the only complete over-the-air prime time, gavel-to-gavel coverage of both convention.

The Democratic Party National Convention will be broadcast from Denver starting at 7 p.m. Monday, Sept. 25 -- Thursday, September 28. The Republican Party National Convention will be broadcast live from St. Paul, Minn. starting at 7 p.m. Monday, Sept. 1 -- Thursday, Sept. 4.

In addition to the primetime television coverage, NewsHour reporters will be offering exclusive video reports from the convention halls and floors at the Online NewsHour. They will also be offering instant text updates on their Twitter feed and as-they-happen photo uploads on the NewsHour Flickr feed -- a combination tactic NewsHour staffers have coined as "Twickering."

As the election season unfolds, don't forget that your best source for Wisconsin-based election information is WisconsinVote.org. If you're looking for information from public television outlets around the country, you'll want to visit the PBS Vote 2008 Web site.
